Sat, 01 Dec 2018 00:00:00 +0000https://commonspub.org/post/2018-11-29-commonspub-history/After discussions on Loomio, Github and elsewhere, several communities embraced the idea of ​​developing this type of infrastructure, such as FairCoop and Mutual Aid Network among others.
From these developments and synergies, the open cooperative ecosystem project was formed to combine the efforts of the different communities and develop compatible software together.
In the summer, given our experiences using protocol as part of the fediverse, and seeing the growing developer community around it, we decided to adopt ActivityPub as a federation protocol.Apps powered by CommonsPubhttps://commonspub.org/page/apps/

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://commonspub.org/page/about/We want to facilitate the process of creating an open source federated app ecosystem. This will be achieved by creating an unopinionated server federated through the ActivityPub w3c standard.
ActivityPub gives applications a shared vocabulary that they can use to communicate with each other. If a server implements ActivityPub, it can publish posts that any other server that implements ActivityPub knows how to share, like and reply to. But the vocabulary can be extended to represent other types of activities beyond the initial social ones, including economic and political activities.
